Bulgaria Ski discussion board

They opened the red 13 today and that was ok although a few loose rocks on it. Greens are icy in the middle and the pistes don't seem to be groomed at night at all.
The main reds and blacks don't look good at all (although I think it has more to do with the forestry not removing the saplings rather than the lack of snow.

Took the new lift down to Stoikite today - a few people were skiing the new runs (although they were not open officially) - looked like plenty of snow - but you have to stop in a couple of places and climb over the trees that are lying across the piste. I would be really wary of skiing them and would take them very slow - so much debris and stumps on there that could really catch you out and I suspect if you had an accident you would be on a sticky wicket with your insurance if the piste was not officially open.

My money (sadly) is on the red and black pistes remaining closed for the rest of the season.

I will be trying to claim for piste closure - my policy states if 80% of the resort is closed I can claim. Has anyone done this?

Went for a ride on the husky dog sleigh today - now that was fun!! Skating rink is diserted so kids are having that to themselves at the mo whilst I sit and drink beer and play on t'internet.
